SCUM celebrates its long-awaited 1.0 release with a 100 key giveaway at the Future Games Show

News
By Iain Wilson published 7 June 2025

After seven years in Early Access, brutal survival sim SCUM gets a full 1.0 release – and you can win one of 100 game keys right here

When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works.

GamesRadar+ created this content as part of a paid partnership with Jagex. The contents of this article are entirely independent and solely reflect the editorial opinion of GamesRadar+.

SCUM has been in Early Access since all the way back in August 2018, so unless you've been trapped in a gaming-free cave since then you'll almost certainly have heard of it already. As revealed during the Future Games Show Summer Showcase, the much-anticipated 1.0 release is coming soon on June 17, 2025 and we have 100 game keys to giveaway to lucky viewers.

Enter the SCUM giveaway here!

If you need some background, then SCUM sees you stranded as a prisoner on a super-max island, where you'll need to use your skills and hone your instincts if you want to survive. As you loot and craft while exploring the island, you'll face constant threats from armed mechs, zombie-like 'puppets', and of course your fellow prisoners – or you can team up to increase your odds of survival together.

  • Wishlist SCUM on Steam now

SCUM is perhaps best know for its intricate simulation of the human metabolic system, so you'll need to maintain your food and water intake to remain hydrated and fed, while also dealing with your bladder and bowels at the appropriate times so you don't end up succumbing to your own bodily systems.

While all of this is going on, you have to remember that the sinister TEC1 corporation that runs this prison island is also an entertainment company, broadcasting all of your successes and failures to a bloodthirsty audience. Millions are watching your every move, so make sure you put on a good show.

If you want to be in with a chance to win one of the 100 SCUM 1.0 keys we're giving away, then fill in your details on the form provided below – good luck!

Enter the SCUM giveaway here!

The Prize Draw opens at 7pm on 07/06/2025 and closes at 7pm on 14/07/2025. Late or incomplete entries will be disqualified.

Entries limited to one per household regardless of the form of entry. Use of automated devices or methods of submission are not valid forms of entry.

Any person winning $600 or more worth of prizes from a Sponsor in a calendar year will receive an IRS form 1099 after the end of the calendar year in which the prizes were awarded and copy of such form will be filed with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). The value of the prize may be taxable as income and each prize winner is solely responsible for any taxes, including, but not limited to all applicable federal, state, and local taxes that become due with respect to the value of the prize.
